Singapore in March
When to go
The Meteorological Service Singapore describes the late Northeast Monsoon as windy and relatively dry, usually until early March, and then lists late March to May as an inter-monsoon period with afternoon and early evening thunderstorms and hot afternoons. The World Meteorological Organization's normals list the March temperatures and precipitation. The Ministry of Manpower's holiday list gives Hari Raya Puasa and Good Friday in March, so check opening hours around those dates.
